New Zealand is very much like Great Britain in a way. They have an accent much like there's, they drive on the wrong side of the road, but they also play some of the same sports. Soccer we all know about, but rugby and cricket a lot of people don't know anything about them. I will start with cricket because that is the one I know most about. Cricket is kind of like baseball, someone throws a ball you try to hit it away and then run. Cricket also has its differences though, you use a flat bat and the person who throws the ball is called the bowler, when the bowler bowls the ball he has to keep his arm strait when he throws it. The bowler tries to knock over the three of the pegs that are standing there behind the person with the bat. In order to switch the bowlers team to batter he has to hit over all three pegs. Rugby as far as I know is a very complicated sport(which I don't know much about), it's like foot ball with no pads and they almost never stop play. If you want to see one of these sports in action go to www.youtube.com and search one of these sports.
